Using Cinder-OpenCV with Visual Studio 2015

I recently cloned Cinder-OpenCV into my Cinder blocks directory. I am on the dev branch since that contains sample for Visual Studio 2013 instead of 2011. However, I'm using Visual Studio 2015 and when I run the Basic example I get

opencv_core249d.lib(system.obj) : error LNK2038: mismatch detected for '_MSC_VER': value '1800' doesn't match value '1900' in ocvBasicApp.obj

I know it's a linking issue but I'm new to Visual Studio and not sure how to fix the settings. Thanks for your help!

Solution

  • To solve the issue I downloaded Visual Studio 2013, ran Cinder using the 2013 Platform Toolset settings in the 2015 IDE, and then was able to run the OpenCV samples in the 2013 Platform Toolset settings in the 2015 IDE.
